Missing Her So Tanjung Tualang We Went...

My girl didn't come back for two weeks and I kind of missed her.... hahaha.. so what does a mom do when she feels like that?  Yes, I drove up to see her, forty five minutes journey only... and since it was a Sunday, there was none other better place than going to Tanjung Tualang for our lunch!  After all, it is the nearest destination where we could have a nice and proper meal.
Since it was not festive season, 
the crowd was not there to "flog" the restaurants..
That is what I like.. no crowd....
And this time we went into Sun Luen Fong Restaurant...
We had these...
Her favourite steamed fish....
fried meehoon
 
"Yau Mak" with "fermented beancurd"
crispy fried "oysters"
different shapes from the ones we normally take..
and for these dishes, (plus fried rice)
the bill came to a hefty RM93!!
I feel it is a bit "overpriced."
After our lunch, we went to buy some "cookies" and other stuff along the street... and that was it.. Dropped her back to the college after getting some groceries and bid bye-bye to her till the next weekend.....  Well, this is the life of a mother and her child who leaves home after a certain year of age...

Ooooo...all the nice dishes! Slurpsss!!! ONLY 45 MINUTES!!! I sure would go over whenever I can - maybe bring something nice that she loves to eat - Japanese, Italian.... My girl will be 1 and half hours away when she starts working - she'll be home every weekend, of course...and you can be sure that I may just hop over to send her any nice things to eat whenever I can.

Loves the steamed fish...

Irene Tan said...

Well, at least it only takes you 45 minutes drive. Not festive time, also so expensive. Maybe the fish & oyster cost a bomb.
